curl command in Unix giving exception












-1















I am executing the below curl command and getting the error:



curl -Method Post -Header @{'Content-Type'='application/x-www-form-urlencoded'}-Body @{grant_type = 'password';username = 'abcd';password = 'xyz'} "http://someaddress/api/oauth/token" -O test_curl


Could you please check what wrong I am doing here?



Error:

  • Did… did you just make up those options?! And what’s that @{…} syntax? Something’s really strange here.

The -Method option should be -X or --request. The -Header option should be -H or --header. Also, you must use double quotes to pass the JSON header with single quotes to curl.



Try this:



curl -XPOST -H "@{'Content-Type'='application/x-www-form-urlencoded'}-Body @{grant_type = 'password';username = 'abcd';password = 'xyz'}" -o test_curl "http://someaddress/api/oauth/token"
